Synthesis of electrically conducting organic polymers: halogen derivatives of polyacetylene, (CH)x

TLDR
When silvery films of the semiconducting polymer, trans polyacetylene, (CH)x, are exposed to chlorine, bromine, or iodine vapour, uptake of halogen occurs, and the conductivity increases markedly (over seven orders of magnitude in the case of iodine) to give silvery or silvery-black films, some of which have a remarkably high conductivity at room temperature.Abstract:

Mechanochemical route to the conducting polymer polyaniline
TL;DR: A solvent-free mechanochemical route for the synthesis of polyaniline has been developed in this article, where reaction between anilinium salts, such as aninium chloride, anilina sulfate, and anilinea camphorsulfonic acid and the oxidant, ammonium peroxydisulfate, result in polyaniniline formation on ball-milling the reactants.
